Facing the reality of what goes on in our minds. The way that we perceive our actions may not always be the way that other people see. The consequences of mania even hypomania can be tremendously detrimental to our way of
life, our health as well as our financial stability. The state of being unstable causes our perceptions to be distorted
and the control over our moodswings falters and eventually become beyond our control.
The question often asked of ourselves is where do I go from here I know my symptoms, I know my triggers, I know how devastating the outcome of an episode. But how do I avoid a future high and the eventual depression? For me sometimes that can be the underlying trigger for an episode. The constant worrying about when and what will happen is constantly on my mind before an episode but I can find no way to stop it from happening.
History shows up how the dreadful moodswings can affect us and others around us.
I wrote about this in one of my other blogs and I often read them in my attempt to find some insight into my
own mental disorder.

Suicide in women in Classical Mythology asks the questions that are even now misunderstood.
Why is death preferable to life? When is suicide acceptable or necessary?
In ancient Greek scholars were of the opinion that mental diseases were caused by an imbalance in four humors of the body.
These 2 blog posts attempt to show not explain the history of metal disorders as they were understood in the past. Two of my other blogs are The Journey From the Unknown and The Mythological Truth both of which try to show how mental disorders were once perceived and also they also show what my mania produces when it is present.
So where do I go from here? For now wherever my moodswings take me.
